What we fix, and what it costs

Prices below are the honest starting points — the call-out and the first 30 minutes of labour are included. If the job turns out bigger than quoted, you get a phone call with the number before a single wrench moves. No surprises, no "while we were in there" upsells.

How a visit actually goes

Four steps, no paperwork maze, no "we'll call you when it's ready".

  1. 01

    You call or text

    Tell us the year, make, model and what it's doing — noise, light, smell, won't start. A photo of the dash or the part helps more than you'd think. If it's something we can't do mobile, we say so on the phone instead of charging you a call-out to find out.

  2. 02

    You get a window and a number

    Usually a two-hour arrival window the same day, or next morning if you call late. You get a firm quote range before we leave the shop, so you can decide whether it's worth doing now or waiting until payday.

  3. 03

    We come to the car

    Driveway, condo underground, office parking lot, side of the road. We need roughly two car-lengths of space and permission to be there. Everything we need is in the van — jack, stands, torque wrench, scan tool, fluids, and the common parts for your model.

  4. 04

    You watch, or you don't

    Plenty of customers stand and ask questions the whole time, which is fine — you're allowed to know what's happening to your own car. Others leave the keys and go back inside. Either way you get the old parts shown to you and a written summary of what was done.

Hours, address & payment

We're a mobile service, so the address below is the home base — the van comes to you. Call before dropping by.

Where the van goes

Mississauga is home, and we cover it properly — not just the two neighbourhoods closest to the shop. If you're in one of these areas, you're in the regular rotation:

  • Churchill Meadows & Erin Mills
  • Meadowvale & Lisgar
  • Streetsville & Meadowvale Village
  • Port Credit & Lakeview
  • Malton & Bramalea border
  • Square One / City Centre condos
  • Clarkson & Lorne Park
  • Hurontario corridor, Cooksville

Also serving the Mississauga–Oakville and Mississauga–Brampton edges. Outside that ring there's a small travel fee, quoted up front on the phone — never added to the bill afterwards.

Who's turning the wrench

Sid has been working on cars since he was sixteen, apprenticed at a dealership on the Queensway, and spent nine years in a general repair shop before going mobile in 2011. The reason was simple: half of what he was doing all day was oil changes and brake jobs on cars that had been dropped off and left for six hours, and the customers were paying for the convenience of a waiting room they didn't want.

So he bought a van, stocked it properly, and started going to the cars instead. Fifteen years later it's still one man and one van — which means the person who answers your call is the person who shows up, and the person who shows up is the person who did the work. No service advisor relaying messages, no apprentice doing the job unsupervised.

What that buys you: a straight answer about whether a repair is worth doing on a car that's on its way out, and no pressure to approve work you don't need. If your brakes have 40% left, you'll be told they have 40% left.

“A car is a machine, not a mystery. You're allowed to know what's wrong with yours and what it should cost to fix.”
